The media noise surrounding Alessandro Bastoni shows no sign of dying down, and even the market expert journalist Gianluca Di Marzio returns to talk about it with new updates on his future and Inter‘s transfer strategies: “Today Barcelona is moving with complex operations that involve this kind of formula with money and technical counterparts. Inter is coming to terms with a possible sale of Bastoni, because it could also be linked to the player’s own wishes. The feeling is that Alessandro himself now wants to have this kind of experience, wants to free himself from this burden, from this emotional weight that he currently has every time he plays on a Serie A pitch, and having this opportunity to play for Barcelona clearly cannot leave him indifferent.” he told Tuttomercatoweb.

Then Di Marzio adds: “So on one hand, there may be, I repeat, the emotional push from Bastoni who wants to try this experience, but on the other hand, a deal must be made that is right for Inter. Inter today would like a figure around 70 million euros for Bastoni, so that they can replace him and also do some business in the market with that amount. Inter’s first choices for that role would be Muharemovic from Sassuolo and Solet from Udinese. It’s clear that Inter already needed to sign one even without Bastoni leaving, if Bastoni goes, they need to sign three, and so those 70 million would allow Inter to buy both Solet and Muharemovic. So, Bastoni out for Solet and Muharemovic, this could be Inter’s strategy provided that Bastoni expresses the desire to leave, and on the other hand, that Barcelona comes up with this kind of offer without perhaps including who knows what technical counterparts that Inter might not consider suitable to be immediately included in the starting lineup.”
